Yeah, and encrypted volumes (in my case).

That is great!  I had not looked at github.  (That pull i could
not have found by then?)

I am not at github so cannot see the log, but since configure
failed also locally, a "autoreconf" seems to fix it.  After that:

  make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/x/openssh.tar_bomb_git/regress'
  unit tests passed
  echo all tests passed
  all tests passed

(8.5p1 plus your patch.)
It would be nice if that patch made it in.

Thanks, and Ciao from Germany,

Dear all,

see

    https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1902

for one of the first reports and also a reason why it is currently not accepted.

Best,
Bert
